🏑 Offset accounts surge as people manage rising rates 🏑 ⁣
⁣
Instead of being paid interest on money in an offset account, the balance is deducted from your mortgage when interest is calculated each month.⁣
⁣
And because you're then paying more of the principal each month, that reduces your home loan quicker, which also helps you save on interest long term. ⁣
⁣
DM us to see if an offset account could work for you.πŸ‘‡β£

🏑 Granny flat boom fuels demand for renovation loans 🏑⁣
⁣
The Aussie backyard is undergoing a makeover. ⁣
⁣
NAB says demand for renovation loans jumped 21% last year. πŸ“ˆβ£
⁣
And it’s primarily being driven by homeowners planning to install a granny flat. ⁣
⁣
A granny flat can provide extra space, be a source of rental income, or potentially add value to your home. πŸ’°β£
⁣
But they don’t always come cheap. ⁣
⁣
You could be looking at anywhere from $80,000-$160,000. ⁣
⁣
The good news? πŸ’‘β£
⁣
Your home equity can be a source of funding. ⁣
⁣
Talk to us about financing a granny flat in your backyard. πŸ‘‡β£

πŸ’° How much do you need to earn to buy a home? πŸ’°β£
⁣
Domain recently looked at the income needed to buy a home, assuming a 20% deposit. ⁣
⁣
It found a solo buyer needs an annual income from $232,000 to buy in Sydney, or $111,000 to buy in Darwin. 🏑⁣
⁣
For couples, each person may need to earn $121,000 in Sydney, or just $68,000 for more affordable capitals. ⁣
⁣
The catch is these were figures for houses. ⁣
⁣
Apartments may require a lower income. 🏒⁣
⁣
What matters is that you talk to us. ⁣
⁣
We can explain your borrowing power across different lenders based on your situation. πŸ‘‡β£

🏒 Unit versus house, what's your preference? 🏑⁣
⁣
Two of the main advantages of apartments are low-maintenance lifestyle and greater affordability. ⁣
⁣
Houses and their associated land, on the otherhand, usually provide greater capital gains, according to Cotality data. ⁣
⁣
But you've got to start somewhere...⁣
⁣
The median unit price across state capitals is $749,446. πŸ“Šβ£
⁣
That’s 34% less than the median house price of $1,140,454. 🏑⁣
⁣
The $391,000 price difference could help you bring forward your home buying plans. ⏩⁣
⁣
And if you’re a first home buyer, you may only need a 5% deposit to get started. πŸ‘‡β£

🐜 Pre-purchase pest inspections may have just became more important 🐜⁣
⁣
Across large parts of Australia the end of summer was hot and humid.⁣
⁣
Perfect conditions for termites.⁣
⁣
A Domain report reveals a 30% uptick in termite-related calls to pest companies. πŸ“ˆβ£
⁣
Getting rid of termites can be expensive. ⁣
⁣
And the damage they leave behind may not be covered by insurance. ⚠️⁣
⁣
For homebuyers, this highlights the value of a pre-purchase pest inspection, which can cost just upwards of $150. ⁣
⁣
Or get a combined pest and building inspection to cover both bases. 🧾⁣
